TKZombie Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Looking forward to submitting mine for lvl 2 approval. It’s all there and ready. One question are we going with 3/4” ribbed elastic or 1” ribbed on the shoulder, bicep, and knee? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walt didn't know what size they used so we can only make a reasonable guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thig big one is the bicep as the ROTJ has 2” a wide band and the Mandalorian is the same thickness as the forearms. I’m really to do photos this weekend for submission.

I've already contacted the LMO team about making the updates. Stay tuned for an announcement 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BikerScout007 Posted July 30, 2021 Author Share Posted July 30, 2021 Added this detail to the L2 boot requirement: Dogbone length is such that it overlaps onto the soleof the boot on both sides. Toe strip measures between 1/2-5/8 inches in height. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takabon Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I think the pouch, cummerbund, and codpiece all look like the same fabric. If the cummerbund and codpiece are smooth cotton, wouldn't the pouch be the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikerScout Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 After zooming in it looks like the cummerbund is twill. The weave is diagonal. Someone could ask steph, she would know. The cod and pouches definitely looks like two different fabrics to me.Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk When I asked her, Steph said she made the soft goods based on the ROTJ Scout CRL requirements. That doesn't mean that's what she did -- that's just what she said. Looking at that photo @takabon posted -- yeah they all look like the same fabric. The thing with the ROTJ Scout is, you can see at a glance that they are not the same fabric: The bund and cod has a shine and "wrinkliness" to it that the pouches don't have. They also don't weather the same. The pouches seem to absorb weathering, whereas on the bund the weathering almost sits on top of the fabric, if that makes any sense. So....we've got a conflict here. Assuming that the soft goods on the Scout from SDCC were made by Steph, I don't really see any difference in the fabric either. I'm pretty tempted to remove the fabric requirement from L2.

MikerScout Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 It would make things easier for the build but those pouches would be awfully floppy if they were just that thin cottonSent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikerScout Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Looking at that picture close it looks like the cod and pouches are the same, or really close, but the bund is differentSent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it looks like they are all made of twill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bund fabric is a lighter weight, I'm not so sure about that cod though, looks like a 90 degree weave to me. That cod looks like it might be sewn to the bund too, I hope it's not. With my weird shape the only way I can keep everything straight is by having separate pieces lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to leave the fabric standards the way they are for the time being. If anything I'll just remove them and it will be dealer's choice. I can always just leave it at "white cotton fabric" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saves them from reworking ALL the soft goods. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
